Introduce your church or youth group to the biblical basis for old-earth creationism.
This year-long science apologetics program is designed to prepare high school students to confront key questions related to the interface between science and Scripture that they will encounter in their university studies and beyond.

Whether it involves working on a blog entry or developing a book or article idea, I am always looking for fresh ways to connect theology with every day life.
My “inspirations” usually come through some kind of life situation (frequently involving my children) that provides an illustration of a particular theological idea. Writing is also a wonderful way to express what God is doing in my life and how He is developing my faith — both in heart and mind. I write two standing columns (“Bible Bookend” and “Educator's Help Desk”) in the Reasons To Believe e-zine, New Reasons To Believe.

Wednesday, April 13, 2011 at 08:43PM Hugh Ross launched his career at age seven when he went to the library to investigate why stars are hot.

Wednesday, April 13, 2011 at 08:35PM Einstein’s theory of general relativity is foundational to some of the greatest scientific evidences for the existence of God. Dr. Jeff Zweerink highlights a recent cluster of discoveries that buttress and refine our understanding of the beginning and development of the universe (see “Multiple General Relativity Tests Affirm a Creator”). This research also contributes to the growing body of evidence for the existence of dark matter and dark energy as the dominant “stuff” of the universe. While these particular phenomena are not specifically mentioned in the Bible, research has revealed the remarkable level of design these dark substances exhibit and the critical role they play in support of advanced life. more...

Wednesday, April 13, 2011 at 08:31PM Remember the saying, “The best defense is a good offense”? As I interacted with people at the Oklahoma Homeschool Conventions this year, those words seemed especially relevant. Many of the parents who approached our RTB booth asked some variation of the same question: “How can I prevent my children from leaving Christianity behind as they grow into adulthood?” more...
